Volume 1, Chapter 105: Are the goblins’ deceptive techniques terrifying?
The highest level of deception is to deceive even yourself.
Lin Qi was in awe. These goblins might have maxed out their deception skills.
They had already been defeated by me, but they still insisted that Lynch was a thief no matter what.
"We are all in the same boat, I understand." Lin Qi sneered: "I know very well the way you deceived the villagers. In front of your peers, you should stop pretending, okay?"
"I don't know what you are talking about, human!" The goblin said viciously, "Human, you are challenging the dignity of the Offa tribe!"
"You bastards, why don't you come and save your master!" When the fat villager saw the goblins standing up, hope rekindled in his eyes, and he shouted at the goblins: "If you don't hurry up, you will all be punished!"
Upon hearing this, the goblins immediately knelt down and kowtowed to the fat villager, saying, "Master, we humble goblins are wrong. Please rest assured that we will save you even at the cost of our lives!"
After saying that, he stood up and rushed towards Lin Qi again.
Unfortunately, with just a few moves, Lynch easily knocked them to the ground again.
However, this time, Lynch felt a little suspicious.
This doesn't seem quite right, does it?
What's up with these goblins?
Why are you kneeling on the ground and calling me master?
Isn't this too much?
This is not the way to cheat!
Moreover, these goblins really fought desperately. After being knocked down, they rushed towards Lynch again.
This has been going on for several times. If he gets beaten a few more times, I'm afraid he'll be beaten to death!
"Brother, they may be deceiving people, but they have never done anything bad!" Brother Dao saw that the goblins seemed to be about to collapse, and said to Lin Qi: "Brother, you won't beat them to death, right?"
Lynch shook his head. He had gradually sensed that something was wrong.
He turned to Doug and asked, "You said they were cheating, but what's going on?"
Daoge replied: "They are just deceiving these villagers. Although their behavior makes me feel disgusted, they are really not an evil race. Big brother, please spare them. I will help you persuade them and make them turn over a new leaf."
"......"
Lynch was speechless. It seemed that there was some problem in communicating with the subhumans.
So Lynch turned his gaze to the fat man.
He squatted down and asked the fat man who was already paralyzed on the ground: "Tell me, who asked you to frame me for theft?"
Hearing this, the fat villager was shocked and shook his head repeatedly: "I know nothing, I was wrong, let me go, I won't dare to do it again! I will never lie again, I will leave the village immediately!"
If this guy had said before that he would never lie again, Lynch would have thought that he had been deceived and had a mental problem, but now it seems that this is not the case.
"Hmph! You're not going to tell me?" Lynch narrowed his eyes and pointed a finger at the center of the fat villager's forehead. A small magic mark appeared.
"Extraordinary first-level spiritual magic - speaking the truth!"
The fat villager's pupils began to dilate, his face, which was twisted with tension, relaxed, and his head drooped.
Lynch asked him again.
"We the villagers united to frame you for theft. You deserve to die. You shouldn't be in the village."
The villagers lowered their heads, as if talking in a sleep.
This made Lynch's mouth twitch. It seemed that he had wronged the goblins.
"Why did you frame me for theft?" Lynch asked again.
"Because you said you received God's will, and God hates deception the most. We think you want to expose our lies and punish us, so we have to take the initiative."
The villagers' words made Lin Qi's eyes widen, and he always felt that something was getting more and more wrong.
"What lies do you want to expose? And what's going on between you and the goblins?" Lynch asked again.
Finally, the villager slowly came to Lin Qi and told him everything.
After learning the truth of the matter, Lynch was speechless and almost vomited blood.
Are all the demi-humans in this alien world mentally ill?
The dwarven masters love to work.
And these goblins, they're more... well, personal.
This is what happened...
The villagers of this village migrated here decades ago, and then one day, they encountered a goblin.
After the initial panic, they discovered that the goblin had no malicious intentions.
Then, they got to know the entire tribe of goblins from Offa.
After spending a long time together, they discovered that these goblins from the Offa tribe had some problems.
The goblins of the Offa tribe believe in 'cheating' and 'stealing'.
But what they call 'cheating' is being deceived.
As the descendants of the ancient goblins, the Arcane tribe, after getting to know these humans, they were "smart" and tried every means to induce the desires in these humans' hearts, and then let these humans enslave them and become noble slaves!
They looked down on these humans and all intelligent creatures from the bottom of their hearts, and often laughed at these stupid humans at night, not knowing that they were the descendants of the noble ancient goblins, but thinking that they were slaves.
In order to hide their lies and use their special way of guiding these humans to become greedy, they work hard and will not be afraid of difficulties to complete whatever orders these humans give.
They even lived a life like slaves for this.
The harder and more humiliating their lives are, the more proud they become, because it means their lies have been completely successful!
Unfortunately, what they didn't know was that these humans had already known their thoughts decades ago, and because of the goblins' strange habits, they became even more aggressive in enslaving the goblins of the Offa clan.
Because they found that the tougher they were to the goblins, the happier they would be.
From then on, the people in this village lived a prosperous life...
Then, there's the problem of these goblins stealing.
They like to steal everything. In order to steal good things, they create all kinds of good things in the eyes of humans and give them to humans.
In the dead of night, they would start stealing together to satisfy their special hobbies.
Who would have known that as more and more good things were given away, the village became more and more prosperous.
This is also the reason why the people in this village became rich.
"I... give in." Lynch looked as if he had no strength left in his body, with his brows drooping.
Shocking.
There's something wrong with the demihumans in this world.
"Hey, look, big brother. I told you that the goblins of the Offa clan like to deceive people. Big brother, you have to be careful!" Dao Ge sighed, "Big brother, you must not be deceived like these humans. This deception will last for decades."
